STEP 3: PRESS the Shock button<br />
As soon as the HeartStart detects that the pads are attached to the patient, it<br />
begins analyzing the patient’s heart rhythm. It tells you that no one should be<br />
touching the patient, and the Caution light begins flashing as a reminder.<br />
If a shock is needed:<br />
The Caution light goes from flashing to solid, the orange Shock button<br />
starts flashing, and the defibrillator tells you to press the flashing orange button.<br />
Be<strong>for</strong>e you press the button, make sure no one is touching the patient. When you<br />
press the Shock button, the HeartStart tells you that the shock has been delivered.<br />
Then the defibrillator tells you it is safe to touch the patient, instructs you to begin<br />
CPR, and invites you to press the flashing blue i-button <strong>for</strong> CPR Coaching if<br />
desired.<br />
If a shock is not needed:<br />
The HeartStart tells you it is safe to touch the patient and instructs you to<br />
per<strong>for</strong>m CPR if needed. (If CPR is not needed – <strong>for</strong> example, if the patient is<br />
moving or regaining consciousness – follow your local protocol until emergency<br />
medical personnel arrive.) Then the HeartStart invites you to press the flashing<br />
blue i-button <strong>for</strong> CPR Coaching, if desired.<br />

For CPR Coaching:<br />
Press the flashing blue i-button during the first 30 seconds of the patient care<br />
pause to activate CPR Coaching. * (If the Infant/Child SMART Pads Cartridge is<br />
inserted, CPR Coaching will provide coaching <strong>for</strong> infant/child CPR.) When the<br />
pause is over, the defibrillator tells you to stop CPR, so it can analyze the patient’s<br />
heart rhythm. The motion caused by CPR can interfere with analysis, so be sure to<br />
stop all motion when instructed.<br />
* The default configuration <strong>for</strong> the HeartStart provides CPR Coaching when you press the<br />
i-button in this situation; however, the default setting can be revised by your Medical<br />
Director using Philips software available separately. See Appendix F <strong>for</strong> more<br />
in<strong>for</strong>mation.<br />
